You fake half a smile as I'm done packing the car
For a months worth of shows out west and down below
You stand between me and my guitar
Your face says "don't go", but you tell me that you know
That this is what I need to do and baby, I thank you
CHORUS:
And you understand freedom
And you stand by your man
And you know the reason with no dis-believin'
Of knowin' now who I am
I'll be home just as soon as I can
Here are some smokes for the drive, I saved you my last 4 or 5
I'll call you when soundcheck is through, so I can say thank you
She says, "Stay out of the left lane!...so you don't leave me here a wreck".
I say, "Yeah, mama, sure. I don't wanna leave premature. Let me do one last idiot check. I don't wanna leave just yet".
CHORUS:
And you understand freedom
While you stand by your man
Darling don't you know I got 10 shows to go
This was all part of the plan
I'll be home just as soon as I can
If you could be here right now, you'd understand how
The road and the stage meet
After driving all day, now is finally my turn to play
CHORUS:
You understand freedom
And darlin here comes your man
I've been driving 7 hours
So honey, just let me shower
And I'll hold you for as long as I can
I'm gonna do this all again
Just as soon as I can
